Rezensionen
W. Stiefele in Jazzthetik 12/01: "Mit 'Point Of View' begann ihre Weltkarriere. Vor allem in Titeln wie "Never" oder dem stark vom Funk beeinflussten "Desperate Move", in denen sie sich auf den spannungsgeladenen Umgang mit Rhythmen der "M-Base"-Mitgleider einließ, fasziniert die Sängerin auch heute noch."-
